Partner

Dir. Bernardo Bertolucci

Italy 1968 | Colour | 105 mins | Drama

Cast: Pierre Clémenti, Stefania Sandrelli, Tina Aumont

Influenced by the films of Jean-Luc Godard and the worldwide political upheavals of 1968, Partner is an unorthodox take on Dostoyevsky’s The Double. Bernardo Bertolucci weaves an ethereal and charming tale of a repressed young man who creates a radical alter ego for himself and argues polemics with the likeness.
